Satan's EntertainmentDiscussion for Movies/TV/Music/Video Games/Pop Culture. How HELLY-wood is destroying our society and parents can learn to protect their children from sinful influences like Disney, Pacman, and Tic-Tac-Toe.

It has come to my attention through the recent hoopla of the "Oblivion" thread that the same company has created an equally disturbing game called Fallout 3. Without a doubt, the people at Bethesda Softworks (creators of Oblivion and Fallout 3) seem intent on corrupting our youth with introducing anti-Biblical concepts, violence, sexuality, and law-breaking. I have just reviewed the game, and I will now provide a fair and balanced assessment of this poor excuse for a "game".

The setting takes place in and around Washington D.C. after a nuclear war. I might as well open by saying the only good thing that this game offers is that it rightly attributes communism to destruction. In the game's story, China has launched nuclear strikes and destroyed America. While this is much applauded (not the destruction of America, but showing that Communists are evil people), that is where the positive nature of this game ends. Here are just some brief tidbits about what this game contains...

It is extremely violent. It features various types of sub-machine guns, nuclear weapons, rocket launchers, knives, flamethrowers, various melee weapons, and other instruments of destruction. You can't play this game without killing hundreds of people.

There is a lot of cursing in this game, with the A-word, S-word, and F-word.

There is a "perk", if you want to call it that, called "Bloody Mess" which makes killing people even more graphic and gruesome. Your enemies explode in a mess of blood and guts.

There is another "perk" called Mister Sandman that allows you to kill innocent people in their sleep.

The worst "perk" of all is the aptly-named Cannibal that allows you to literally devour corpses. I'm not making this up!

There are quests where you are assigned to kill people. One is even so blatantly called "You gotta shoot 'em in the head" where you are told to do just so.

You can blow up an innocent town with an atom bomb. After obliverating these people, you are rewarded with money and a place to stay. What kind of message is this giving our children?

There is prostitution in the game. If you go to a place called Moriarty's Bar, there is a woman who offers to fornicate with you for a price. The player is able to have sexual relations with this woman. 1st Timothy 1:10For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

You can pretty much kill whoever you want, even good guys. The game makes no consequence for your actions. At most, you have to leave a town for three days, but it allows teenagers to live out "spree killer" and "school shooting" fantasies.

The player can create their own homemade weapons like a "dart gun" and "bottlecap mine" which encourage domestic terrorist activities. How many kids might be inspired to make their own pipe bombs after playing this game?

There are beings called "ghouls", which appear to be some kind of zombie demon out of a horror movie. While many ghouls are bad, some are considered "good guys".

It quotes the Bible out of context. One of the recurring themes revolves around Revelations 21:6..."And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." However instead of pointing out that this verse revolves around the Lord and that He alone can provide eternal life, this game misconstrues it and takes it to mean that we can make water-purifying systems. It is a mockery of the Bible!

There is a group of misbehaving brats in a town called Little Lamplight. They do anything they want and disrespect adults. There is nothing in the game that can correct this behavior even though the Bible tells us how to deal with such rebellious imps: Proverbs 13:24"He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes." Nowhere in the game can you punish these children for their behavior. It tells kids they can act however they want with impugnity.

You are able to pick locks and it's a skill. You can basically break into other people's doors, safes, and other secure places and steal what you want at whim.

It also promotes Computer Hacking. Through the skill "Computers", the player can hack another person's private computer, even though hacking is a federal crime.

Alcohol is available in this game through such forms as whiskey.

Drug use is promoted. There is a syringe called "Med X" (Heroin), a drug called "Psycho" (Methamphetamine) and "Buffout" (Steroids). Taking these drugs makes you a stronger player, so drugs are encouraged in this game. Even though you can get addicted to the drugs, you can always just see a doctor to cure the addiction. Nowhere in this game is there any Christian pastor to help you overcome addiction through faith in Jesus Christ. Nowhere!

There is a false, heretical religion called "The Church of Atom". They believes that an atom bomb is a god or something. This may lead players to believe in this bizarre cult. Isaiah 42:8"I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images."

The only other church is called "St. Monica's Church". We know Catholics aren't really Christians and this game pushes Catholicism onto players instead of Baptists who believe in the 1611 KJV Bible.

I could go on and on, but I think you can realize what this whole game is about. There are no redeeming qualities in this game, no exhortation of Christian values, but just stuff that would make Satan happy. It should come as no surprise that this game is very popular and many Oblivion players also play this game as well.

Any True Christian™ parent would not want this game around their children. It is an evil influence. Paul warns us to seperate ourselves from such iniquity...

Quote:

2nd Corinthians 6:14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?2nd Corinthians 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?2nd Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.2nd Corinthians 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

Indeed this game is truly an unfruitful work of darkness. You cannot be a Christian and play this game since you are going against the Bible, as I have shown in the above quotes.

Friends, in my last post warning about the dangers of Oblivion, I advocated taking a stand against the stores selling that demonic game, but I feel considering Bethesda has been putting out multiple games, the only rational stand is to call for the end of Bethesda Softworks. These people should be held accountable to the law (both God's and secular) and should not be able to produce video games anymore. I encourage every Bible-believing True Christian™ reading this to let your congressman know about what is going on in this Satanic organization. Bethesda feels they can put out these sinful games at their own will, but they must be stopped.

I will pray that our cause will prevail. I will pray that the Lord will put Bethesda Softworks out of business. I will pray that these criminals serve time behind bars for corrupting our youth. In Jesus' name, I pray.

Yours in Christ,
Rev. Jim Osborne

at least children can live out their evil fantasies in a fantasy world, and not in the real world

You've completely missed the point of this post. Video games can bring out hidden fantasies in kids and encourage them to act out their dreams. It's a small step from shooting someone in a video game to shooting your classmates in real life.

Even if for sake of argument, this was all just fantasy and had no real-world repercussions, what kind of person would fantasize about blowing people away, soliciting prostitutes, abusing drugs, and living a Satanic life? A sick, twisted person that's who!

This is totally unacceptable. What do these people want, to inspire another Columbine? If kids want to play with guns, their parents ought to accompany them on hunting trips to shoot animals, not buy them murder simulators! And America would NEVER fall victim to nuclear attack, God wouldn't allow it!

Killing people at random is just wrong. While it may seem at times the Lord wants everyone dead He has very specific hit lists. Telling a child he can just kill when he wants and not when he is told to is sending the wrong message.

It's so easy to buy a weapon in America, that's why you have so much killing there...

" If kids want to play with guns, their parents ought to accompany them on hunting trips to shoot animals, not buy them murder simulators! And America would NEVER fall victim to nuclear attack, God wouldn't allow it!"

See? It that mentality that produces that kind of people... Play with guns? Give me a break... Maybe you should pick up a gun yourself and end your life. You'd make the world a better place

Goodness you're an angry young lady aren't you? We have a womens area here if you'd like to discuss the period you are on.

God bless America, the Second Amendment and the Constitution. God bless the United States Marine Corps and all who fight for Jesus in third world cess pools. God bless the GOP and all they stand for, Truth, Honesty and the American people. God bless Landover Baptist Church and all True Christians™ the world over. Curses to our Muslim President, his failure is our Salvation.

I feel that I could contribute to this conversation. Now I'm not one to play the video games, but I do own a gun store.

Day in and day out, I see all kinds of customers, from fathers bringing their little boys in to buy them their very first hand guns, to hunters looking for armor piercing rounds, to Landover Church Security always browsing for the latest in Christian self-defense.

You know what they all have in common? They are all decent white Christian folks. None of them are looking for trouble, they are all trustworthy individuals.

There's nothing dangerous about a gun store. Guns don't inspire people to go on murderous rampages. Video games do. If you want to feel scared, take a stroll through your local computer store, and look at all the diabolical, satanic games that are being marketed towards our children!

Which makes YOU feel more frightened? The fact that there are millions of trustworthy white gun owners who enjoy hunting and occasionally showing off with guns (which is wrong because it is prideful), or the fact that any kid can walk into Wal-Mart and buy any murder simulator he wants, that will teach him how to kill indiscriminately, use drugs, hire prostitutes and disrespect authority?

What kind of twisted mind enjoys sitting in front of a screen shooting at cartoon characters when he could be out in nature gunning down rabbits, dear, raccoons, and other types of pests?

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
- Proverbs 15:3

So you think a game were you can get hacked copies of were you can sodomize, dismember and eat the corpses of those people you just murdered is funny? What are you European or something?

Being european as nothing to do with this serious problem, since 99% game publishers are american or asians. Let's face the problem: this outrageous videogames who teaches kids of my age with sins and desrespect for others! It is unforgivable that some parents allow this sort of gamming within their children.

Let's also not forget the ones who turn this "killing guides" for free to download on the internet!!

You're all racist, sexist bigots. You promote a false God's word across an internet board, and mock Europeans and women? Oh, I mean I guess I should expect that from some hypocritical war veteran twat bragging about his body count on a Christian forum. You're all disgraces and abominations to this world, and I've officially become an athiest in response to the garbage posted here.

False Christians and God mockers have taken over this country.
Stop persecuting us with your Atheist agenda.

God bless America, the Second Amendment and the Constitution. God bless the United States Marine Corps and all who fight for Jesus in third world cess pools.

Now, I came across this post specifically through another site and before this reply is disregarded I would like to say that, I myself am a saved christian and I do believe in god. With that being said I would really like to touchdown on a few points here..

"You can pretty much kill whoever you want, even good guys. The game makes no consequence for your actions."

This is totally invalid, the game is built using a karma system - if you get bad karma people will dislike you, run away from you, or not speak to you. If anything this will only teach children that it is NOT okay to do such things.

"How many kids might be inspired to make their own pipe bombs after playing this game?"

If a kid is going to create a pipe bomb after playing a video game, clearly the childs parents are fully accountable for not realizing said child needs help.

"There are beings called "ghouls", which appear to be some kind of zombie demon out of a horror movie. While many ghouls are bad, some are considered "good guys"."

This offended me, the "demons" you are referring to are people that have suffered severe radiation poisoning which is why they look as they do. To call them demons is to say any survivor in close proximity to Hiroshima is a demon.

"Alcohol is available in this game through such forms as whiskey."

Christian's don't alcohol..? If you're argument to this point is that it is targeting children you are wrong - This game is rated M(18+). The developers can not be held liable if the parents choose to purchase this game for their child.

"Drug use is promoted."

Once again you fail to leave out details, the drugs in this game are to increase damage resistance, cure radiation, and heal yourself. Is it wrong for sick children to take medicine, Tylenol?

One other thing, someone had mentioned that "God would never allow a nuclear strike on the USA". If that were the case there would have been no 9/11, nor would god allow this game to exist - right?

I am going to leave it at that, before any of you feel attacked by me.I am sorry if I have offended anyone, that was not my intention. God bless.

God bless America, the Second Amendment and the Constitution. God bless the United States Marine Corps and all who fight for Jesus in third world cess pools.

Who are we to fulfill the will of God? Just because a few military men in Japan decided they wanted something we had does not justify the deaths of 200,000+ unknowing people!

Equinox,

You are truly an idiot talking threw your backside.

The US just completed the invasion of Okinawa were we were forced to kill 1/2 of the civilian population and almost the entire military garrison On Sapan and Okinawa Japaneses civilians were observed throwing their own children off of cliffs rather than have them captured. We were looking repeating the same even on a much larger scale on the Japanese home island. One way or another those civilians were going to die so how does a nuclear weapon make any difference in their deaths?

As far as the Japanese population being innocents that utterly ludicrous, the Japanese government was elected and widely supported. They filled they ranks of the Japanese military and were quite willing to kill, rape and even eat the civilians of other countries when they had the chance.
